Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) TCFD proposed that scenario analysis should become a section of organization’s strategic plans or risk management processes.

The objective of the scenario analysis is to evaluate the impacts of climate change-related risks and
opportunities on business and examine the resilience of current climate change-related strategy.
The scenario analysis is used as an essential tool for organization’s strategic plans or risk management
processes.
The scope of analysis can
include value/supply chain
beyond direct operations, to
achieve a more comprehensive
understanding of the possible
indirect impacts of change-
related risks and opportunities
on business. After familiar with
the qualitative scenario
analysis, a data-driven
quantitative analysis can be
added to further develop the
possible pathways to the
scenarios. The scope of impact
can extend to the impact of a
company’s activities to climate
change (financial v. ES
materiality).
The identified time frames are short (2025),
medium (2035) and long term (2050).
•Identify the key forces and uncertainties
•Identify material risks
•Identify opportunities
Acquire information to predict trends/uncertainties in
environmental and socio-economic conditions such as changes
in policies/regulations, market/technology/investment shifts,
energy supply/demand, changes in population/ GDP.
Material risks include climate-related risks (transition and physical risks).
Specifically, transition risks include climate change-related policy and regulation,
technology development, and reputation. Physical risks include chronic longer-term
climate shifts, such as sustained higher temperatures, sea level rise and acute
event-driven extreme weather, such as heat waves, water stress, wild fires, floods,
drought, and hurricanes.
Climate change-related opportunities include resource efficiency,
energy source, new products and services, markets, revenue
generation, and resilience.
•Select the right public scenarios
•Develop scenarios through internal modeling under
key uncertainties
Commonly used reference scenarios are the physical scenarios, such as the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) scenarios and the transition
scenarios, such as the International Energy Agency (IEA) scenarios. Other
publicly available climate change scenarios include the International Renewable
Energy Agency (IRENA) scenarios and the Network for Greening the Financial
Systems’ (NGFS) Transition scenarios.
Climate change scenarios are can be developed using projections
of what can happen by creating plausible, coherent and internally
consistent descriptions of possible climate change pathways
towards certain goals such as the Paris Agreement targets of 2°C
(or less) of global temperature warming.
•Evaluate impacts of each
identified risk on business for
each scenario per defined time
flame (scenario analysis
outcomes)
To assess a risk until a time frame, a selection of
relevant external variables can be used to
simulate a scenario. These variables can include
carbon pricing and sectoral carbon intensities.
For example, for a policy transition risk, carbon
price of around 2$ per ton by 2025 with low
financial impacts was expected.
•Develop narrative
•Implement strategy
•Derive action plan
•Monitor developments
Specify plan to decrease greenhouse gas
(GHG) emission (e.g., halve GHG
emissions by 2030 for Scope 1/2/3
emission) and implement the net zero
roadmap to achieve net zero by 2050.
